Book Review: Humble Pie

I bought this book after as it was recommended to me. I always wanted to read this book and was glad when I found this quick read version. This book was a really quick read (96 pages!!) and I finished it within an hour and half.

I really enjoyed the book. It was fun to know what he was before he was famous. As a culinary graduate, I really respect on his journey and adventure to learn what he knew now. Not many culinary students would want to sacrifice their working hour with low payment for the sake of a journey…

Book Cover’s Description:

Everyone thinks they know the real Gordon Ramsay: rude, loud, driven, stubborn. But this is his real story…In this fast-paced, bite-sized edition of his bestselling autobiography Ramsay tells the real story of how he became the world’s most famous and infamous chef: his difficult childhood, his brother’s heroin addiction, his failed first career as a footballer, his fanatical pursuit of gastronomic perfection and his TV persona - all the things that have made him the celebrated culinary talent and media powerhouse that he is today.
